Metal Manufacturers

This machine is used for the fabrication of metal withinn the manufacturer's plant.



This is a welded 'I' beam being constructed.



This photo shows a steel portal frame in construction.

Tilt-up construction site

Nippa!



This is a connection between two tilt-up concrete slabs in a corner. A simple angle is used to join the two slabs.



Here the worker is working from a cherry picker which is highly manuverable and thus access to all areas on the inside of building are made accessible. Also, the worker is required to wear a safety harness by workcover according to OH+S regulations.



Tilt-up slabs required bracing so that other structural members can be put in place to hold the building together. This is because a tilt up slab does not support itself very well without other forms of reinforcement.

Completed construction site

Here a scissor-lift is used to construct the facade of the building. The scissor-lift allows workers to be elevated and work with a lot more tools a lot more safely. It is also a requirement of OH+S standards.



This picture shows a worker completing the finishes on the window sills. This detailing is very important for the maintenance of the building in years to come.

Residential concrete slab

This is a photo of the steel re-inforcement that will be placed into the concrete slab.



This photo displays where the boxing has just been taken away from the semi-set concrete slab.
